Beach Portrait

I really like the tones in the sand and water on this shot, and the lighting being cast onto the wet sand around her feet. We loved this place - must go back some time!

I would have preferred it if it wasn't quite such a tight crop for the square format that I like to use, but I think it still works ok.

The Lightroom settings that I'm using for each of these latest Ocean Portrait shots do vary slightly from photo to photo but I will be putting together a downloadable Lightroom Develop Preset at some point soon, containing the general settings that are used for this style.

Once it's ready, the preset will be available on the Lightroom Develop Presets page.
